Where is my mind?

where we don't exist/ metamorphosis

Where We Don't Exist

time is lost in thought

i sit here in my peace

it's over in a blink

just to put my phone aside

just to put my life aside

sit and contemplate my identity

my existence

my heart

the chaos of life disappears

my vision becomes clear

i know who i am, I've always known

i was so stuck thinking out the minutes before me

that i didn't contemplate my eternity

simply existing is 2 steps back

how will i get home?

can i find that peace in life?

what if time didn't exist

and i could see their smiles forever

listen to my heart beat

listen to my synapses fire

all without a price to pay

the music illuminates the night

drinks in hand, laughter to be heard

for one night, nothing else exists

Metamorphosis

when the whole world

is on their high horse

calling you immoral

I'll be with you in the dirt

showing you the beauty of nature

let them lie to themselves

holding onto their vanity

you've shed those lies

molting into the freedom of choice

to accept or reject by your standard

and no one else's

you'll find your purpose in that truth

in the dichotomy of love and hate

"i love this" "i like that"

"i hate this" "i don't like that"

simple things to admit in ourselves

we choose not to like

for fear of titles

we choose not to dislike

for fear of scrutiny

as a butterfly you soar

above the caterpillars

choice is liberating

choice without shame
